An unusual traffic stop in McLean County last week-- a 29-year old Max woman caught driving while breastfeeding, and that's not all.

Authorities received a 911 Thursday afternoon about a possible drunk driver on Highway 83 near Coleharbor.

A McLean County Deputy located the driver headed north on the embankment between Lakes Sakakawea and

Audubon.

The Deputy stopped the driver after seeing the vehicle nearly broadside a semi.

According to his report, "the driver was breastfeeding her infant and talking on her cell phone while driving."

The woman was cited for careless driving and no child restraint.

The vehicle she was driving did not have plates.
